coffee
Depends on the program and your NUT's/Surgreon's beliefs.
Coffee did not count on my program as a liquid, but decaf was okay. HOWEVER, in my program they wanted 800-100 oz of liquids per day ASAP and 64 oz of that had to be plain water.
I have VSG friends who have counted coffee as part of their liquid intake since the get go.
It should. The myth that it dehydrates you has long since been disproven.
